INTERVIEW TO NOEMI

Noemi said that she was feeling stressed today because the final exams were coming, and she told me that she couldn't live without her mobile phone and her computer. She gets angry when her young sister takes her things without asking before. If she could be anywhere in the world at this moment, she would be in Phoenix.
Noemi hasn't got a great memory, but she remembers how she felt on the first day at her school. She was scared because she thought that the school was too big for her. The best holiday she had ever had was in Germany.
She's always positive about the future. I asked if the planet would be a better place in a hundred years, and she answered that she thinks so. When she's older, Noemi would like to live in Barcelona, because she likes the city. She promised that she would do Batxillerat this year.

ITALY
















The trip in general was great. We spent a long time together and now, we are more friends than before. We visited a lot of cities, but the city where I enjoyed most were Milà, because it's a wonderful place with this big galeries and because everybody was tired. It was funny. Venezia is on e of my favourites too. We went shopping a lot, however, all the products in Italy were very expensive. For example, a Cocacola costed 4€. I'll explain some curiosities of the trip: For example, the history of Judit and her loader. Judit said ALL THE TIME in EVERY PLACES that her loader of the mobile was lost, so at the end everybody laugh and told her: Judit, come on, shut up! Also, we had little arguments, but I think that's normal and I didn't worry about it, because I know that we love each other a lot. About the nights, we went out only one day at the disco of the hotel and until 12 a.m. We'd liked to go out more, but it's OK. We were waiting for this trip and it's already finished. I believe that this trip is unforgettable. I imagined it more or less this way, and I'm happy about it.















A LETTER: EXPLAINING A PROBLEM

I've had a problem recently. Two of my friends are going out and the boy loves her a lot, but she isn't interested so much in the relationship and she flirts with other boys. I'm worried and angry at the same time.
I'm worried because I don't want that my friend, the girl, hurts him because I love him a lot. I'm a little angry with her because if she doesn't love him enough, whe has to tell him. She can't flirt with other people while she's going out with him. I think that I have to tell him the truth. Telling him that his girlfriend is flirting with other boys is the best solution, although she's my friend. Doing this, it's possible that my friend don't want to talk to me in a period of time because she'd be angry. I'll understand her, But I believe that she has to understand me, too. My position is very difficult. Another solution is not to say anything, but I don't know...
I'd really like some advice because I have to do something now and because I'd like the opinion of someone else.

A DIARY ENTRY

Alex, my classmate, stole a CD from a shop and he lied to the police saying that he was in my house. I lied to my parents to protect him, but a security video from the shop shows him very clearly. In this moment I thought that what I've done was the correct.
I think that my friend was wrong because he mustn't steal thinkgs. It's illegal. So, he had to bring money if he wanted it. If I hadn't has any money, I would have to tell to my parents or to my friends and they would have given it to me.
I don't think that this will happen again because he was afraid when the police interviewed him and I hink that he felt bad. He's probably learned his lesson now.
